Singapore Food Agency (SFA) has recalled China-produced peanut snacks after detecting presence of cyclamate in the product.
Cyclamate, also known as cyclamic acid, is approved for use as an artificial sweetener for food products in Singapore, however it is not permissible to be used in peanuts.
The agency noted that there are no health risks associated with consuming the peanuts with the level of cyclamate discovered, however it advised against excessive consumption of the food additive.
The product affected has a 350g plastic packaging with an expiry date of 2 October 2023. SFA has directed its importer Yan Tai Yit Pte Ltd to recall the product.
